Following Eat with your Fingers and Scenter (pictured below), Earshell is the third object in Kawamura-Ganjavian's series about sensory experience, amplifying hearing through a device that is part-jewelry, part-listening horn.
From the studio: We use earrings as symbols of distinction since time immemorial, however they are not particularly useful items. The EARSHELL is a simple, efficient and elegant sound enhancing device. It can be used to improve our listening of music or opera. Its refined and sleek profile gives it a jewellery feel.
We love the idea of a whole audience sitting in an opera house wearing these things—the image evokes a sort of undersea sci-fi quality.
